This piece incorporates different pitched taiko, atarigane (bronze hand gongs), hyoshigi (wood blocks) and gongs, playing rhythms in various time signatures. The rhythmic patterns mix and mingle with each other creating a shifting soundscape that is sometimes beautifully chaotic, and at other times unified.
